District of New Jersey grants default judgment against MMC Masonry Group LLC

The Trustees of the B.A.C. Local 4 Pension Fund and related plaintiffs filed suit against MMC Masonry Group LLC in the District of New Jersey, docket number 25-cv-12040. The case centers on claims related to pension fund contributions, a common issue in labor and employment disputes involving union-affiliated funds.

The plaintiffs moved for a default judgment after MMC Masonry Group failed to respond to the complaint, prompting the court to consider whether to grant the motion. The court issued an order on May 12, 2026, addressing the motion for default judgment, signaling progress toward resolving liability and damages without a trial.

No judge has been assigned to the case yet, which is typical in early stages or when the court is processing initial motions. The case remains active with no indication of settlement or dismissal at this point.

The default judgment motion suggests the defendant may not be contesting the claims, which could lead to a swift resolution in favor of the pension fund trustees. The key issue is whether the court will grant the motion and set damages or other relief accordingly.
